Code Breaker House

Bletchley Park

The nineteenth-century mansion and estate near Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire,

has received latter-day fame as the central site for British codebreakers during World War II, although at the time personnel and location of the facility was a closely guarded secret, the estate housed the worlds first code breaking computer. Early personnel on the GC&CS team included Alan Turing, Gordon Welchman, Hugh Alexander and Stuart Milner-Barry.
